Hola Alvaro,

I can capture the message-ids, as well as the message date, from
crawling the web archives. If the tracker has some kind of web
interface, I assume a link such as

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2003-12/msg00046.php

would be easier to follow than

<20031205173035(dot)GA16741(at)wolff(dot)to>

unless the mboxes are stored in an easily accessible form by message-id
(i.e., outside the web archives).

Plus having the web link allows eventual tracking of messages outside of
-bugs.

Joe
